That is a good question. WOD is CrossFit for Workout Of the Day. We distinguish ourselves from the rest of the fitness industry, in one way, by providing a fresh stimulus everyday through a new combination of movements performed at relatively high intensity, also known as a workout. Hence, workout of the day. WOD. Cool huh? Yesterday we did a combination of functional movements, including throws and powerlifting movements, as part of a short obstacle course, done for rounds. Today, we did Helen (scaled to individual fitness levels of course). She is one of CrossFit’s benchmark workouts, one of the few that you see more than once. The “girls” or named workouts serve as guides to gauge progress empirically. Times don’t lie, and neither does the whiteboard they get written on. Come and see how you rank, scaled or not!
